In the third quarter, the Lady Bobcats responded immediately, together the team put on a run that cut the lead to 7 going into the fourth 40-47.  The Bobcats weren't done, they found themselves in the lead with less than 2 minutes remaining in the game.  Time running out, the Bobcats held on to a two point lead and won their first game of the year 57-55.

“We are proud of the way the girls fought back and left it all on the floor.  This was a team win and our bench energy and contribution to the game was big.” Coaches stated
